Tofu Waldorf Salad Wraps

Anything
tastes good in a wrap, according to my husband. Not sure what to do with those
leftovers in the fridge? Put 'em in a wrap! But if you are in the mood for a
more elegant approach, try the "Tofu Waldorf Salad Wraps" (page 114),
inspired by the classic salad of apples, celery, walnuts, and mayonnaise served
on a lettuce leaf. While this recipe uses these same ingredients, it also
incorporates tofu, red onion, and parsley, creating a hearty filling to stuff
inside a tortilla or lavash flatbread (I opted for whole grain tortillas this
time around). This makes a big bowl of salad, enough for much more than the four
wraps indicated in the recipe notes. However, it keeps well so you can enjoy
the leftovers, even outside the wrap, maybe on a bed of greens. Don't be alarmed if you notice
the salad has a faint purple hue after storing it for a day or two; the walnuts have
a tendency to do this in certain dishes, which isn't such a bad thing! J
